Police Commissioner Sitiveni Qiliho says 27 people were arrested last night for breaching the curfew and there were a few cases where people were heavily intoxicated and did not realise where they were.

The Southern and Eastern Divisions recorded 10 arrests each while the Western Division recorded five cases while the Northern Division recorded two cases.

The Police Commissioner says the majority of the arrests involved those who were found walking around during curfew hours from 10pm to 5am.

Qiliho is reiterating the importance of planning, because while you may be allowed to move around for social gatherings with 20 people or less, as soon as it's 10pm you have to stay where you are until the curfew is lifted at 5am.
